How To Cook Roasted Coconut Rice - Gimbiya - 03-19-2018

Roasted coconut rice has that extra roasted aroma that makes you want to eat some more. I wanted to

cook coconut rice but in a different way and while staring at the coconut lying on the table, I just went..."Why not roast the coconut first before blending?" I
quickly picked it up and started cleaning to cook before the idea disappears.
It's very easy to cook and the whole family enjoyed this flavour. When coconut is roasted, it brings sout very good aroma, imagine how it will taste after blending. The roasted coconut milk I tasted after sieving, it was so good, couldn't share. Great if you don't want to sweeten your milk. The roasting gives it both inviting aroma and great taste.

INGREDIENTS
2 cups rice
1/2 kg chicken
1 large coconut
1/2 cup soya oil (Vegetable oil)
2 ripe tomatoes
2 red bell peppers
3 scotch bonnet peppers (ata rodo)
1 small sized green peppers
1 medium sized red onion
1 spring onion without the green leaves
2 seasoning cubes
1 small clove garlic
1/2 ginger
1 teaspoon oregano
1 pinch thyme
1 pinch curry
1 smoked catfish
Salt to taste
A handful runner beans (Optional)
TO STEAM THE CHICKEN, YOU'LL NEED THE FOLLOWING:
1 Small onion
2 pinches of Salt
1/2 teaspoon Garlic
1/2 teaspoon Ginger
1/2 teaspoon Thyme
1. Add these ingredients to washed chicken, mix very well, leave for about 10 minutes if you have time. In a very hot fry pan or non stick cooking pot, drop the chicken one after the other make sure the pot is big enough so that every piece touches the bottom. Leave to get charred but not burnt oh. Once one side get charred like brown, flip over and let them all get charred. Continue to stir and add water for stock. You'll need the brown chicken stock to cook this roasted coconut rice.  Now, check for taste and remove the chicken from the stock. You can now bake, roast or fry your chicken to be served with the rice.
2. Chop and roast the coconut as shown below, blend with water, sieve out the brown milk and set aside.
